Connecting an AV receiver or digital soundbar
You can enjoy Dolby Audio™ multichannel sound from your TV if you connect a digital
amplifier or soundbar (not provided) in any of the following ways:
• Digital optical audio out (S/PDIF) – Connect a TOSLINK optical cable (not
provided) from the TV to the Optical input on your receiver or soundbar.
• HDMI® ARC – Connect an HDMI
®
cable (not provided) from the HDMI (ARC)
connector to the HDMI
®
input on your receiver or soundbar. This connection
uses the Audio Return Channel (ARC) feature of HDMI
®
to output sound from
the TV to a compatible device. To use this feature, you must configure the TV
to enable HDMI
®
ARC, as explained in Setting up a digital audio connection.
• HDMI® eARC –
Select models only:
Connect an HDMI
®
cable (not provided)
from the HDMI (eARC) connector to the HDMI (ARC) or HDMI (eARC) input on
your receiver or soundbar. If your receiver or soundbar supports HDMI
enhanced ARC (eARC), the TV can pass through full-resolution sound from
programs containing enhanced audio. If your receiver or soundbar does not
support eARC, use the TV’s eARC port to make the connection to the device’s
ARC port. The eARC port is backward compatible with the ARC standard.
Preparing for Internet connectivity
If you want to watch streaming content and take advantage of most of the cool
features of your Roku TV, connect it to the Internet through a wireless modem/router
or a wireless access point (not provided). The TV has a built-in wireless LAN adapter.
Note:
The TV supports only its internal wireless network adapter—it does not support
the use of a USB network adapter.
Select models have both wired and wireless network connectivity. To use the wired
network connection, connect an RJ-45 Ethernet cable (not provided) from the jack on
the back of your TV to your network router or switch. The wired connection
automatically supports both 10 Base-T and 100 Base-T Ethernet.
